It was trick or treat day at the farmers market on Saturday, and even though the 35 degree temps kept some people away, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the vendors.
Love the face painting on her and this was the first fried egg costume I have seen.
This fellow did not let any scary skeletons keep him from the treats.
Gloves, hats, hoodies, and jackets were the outfit of the day, as modeled by the well dressed farmer and shopper below.
The jars of buckwheat and wildflower honey below were beautiful. It made me want to go home and drink tea with big spoonfuls of it stirred in.
Mrs. Peters had boxes of the most perfectly decorated fall cookies for sale. Which would go really well with the hot tea and honey.
I resisted the urge to buy "just one more" pumpkin ... but it was hard. They just look so good in a big grouping.
The absolute highlight of the market this week was "weird Barbie". Not only did she pose willingly for me, she flat out threw down what she was holding and did the splits as well. Apparently that is what weird Barbie does. Hands down, she had the best costume and was having the most fun of anyone there.
Here is what came home with me this week. For apple enthusiasts, I am trying the "Ingram" variety this week. Even though I did not get another big pumpkin, more small gourds were definitely needed. You can not have too many gourds.
Yes, I got some snickers cake. I had to, the 28th was Dad's birthday and a snickers bar was his absolute favorite candy bar. As I walked by I swear I heard him say "snag a piece and we'll split it". So I did.
